Should Dani sell the last of her clothes or donate them? What do you guys think?
Donate donate donate. Get it all out of the apartment and free herself from it as quickly as possible. Partly what exacerbated my previous clutter situation was "one day when I have time I will......". That's my advice, get it out and gone. Huge well done to Dani and great work you too. Wishing you both the very best 😊
P.s. belated Happy Birthday Dani 🎉 be proud of yourself. What you've done is tough and huge for you. Be patient with yourself and keep plugging away. You deserve a calm warm hug when you get home every day. You deserve a home that serves you.
Donate!

Donate 😊
I would advise her to donate as long as she doesn’t need the money as the progress of getting it out of the house quickly will be very beneficial.
I agree! And I've heard others on RUclips say they don't bother to sell unless the item is worth more than $50 or $100.
agree with this!
Since Dani has lost her job and might need the extra money, I would advise her to count the extra clothes, take a quarter of the best of them to sell, and donate the rest. Love you both! ❤❤
That’s a great idea!
@@melissaandreag Thanks! 😊
Donate the clothes and get them out of the house. Peace of mind is priceless.
I would donate because the mental peace of seeing a clear space is priceless!!❤❤❤
I agree! Donate and free up the space and your mind for your new pursuits, Dani.
💯
I would put the decluttered clothes into two piles: One small one for clothes that could sell very well and the second one for donation. If the clothes don't sell within a month, donate them too.
So sorry you lost your job. You have done amazing job decluttering. It’s nice you can have a room for your closet now.
Unless Dani REALLY needs the money, I vote for donating it. Selling is a very time-consuming extra job. Photographing, writing descriptions, packing and mailing, if necessary... And the cost of supplies for mailing cuts into her profit. Also, in the meantime while waiting for things to sell, all that stuff takes up a huge amount of space. Unless she has access to a free or very inexpensive booth at a flea market type of spot... Then I'd say do it and get what she can then donate whatever is left over.
Getting it out of the house will be like a huge weight lifted! And her living room will feel enormous for awhile with that space regained. She'll have room to declutter her living room into the space she wants!
2 things: I think Dani felt so much better when she ordered her birthday dress and the blouse. Look how light and happy both pieces are. They actually stood out on the rack!😄❤️ Also, the major thing I’ve learned from you April is start small. I have a terrible procrastination problem, that’s only gotten worse since retirement.😳 (There’s always tomorrow.) I have started splitting my big to-do’s into smaller jobs. Instead of tackling a whole deep clean of my kitchen, I start with my drawers. Then onto the upper cabinets. Then lower. Move on to the fridge. Stove is almost last because I hate cleaning it the most. Finally, scrub the floors. It takes 5-6 days, instead of a month of delaying and 1 1/2 days of misery. As for sell or donate? Unless there are items that are leather, or designer, etc. I would donate. Getting it out will be more beneficial that a few $$$ if/when they sell.
I've learned to do the same. 10 minutes here, 15 minutes there, and it's barely noticeable. And often a nice break from working online.
I've been watching so many decluttering videos and its amazing how that gets you moving. I'll put the screen down mid-video, open a drawer and start decluttering totally automatically! And yes a drawer, shelf, small category at a time. Hubby wants to do it all in one fell swoop so his never gets done. I'd love to do nothing else for a couple to weeks and just get it done, but without a team of people helping drag it away, it's too much.
Donate the clothing, reclaim the living room. Your job search is going to take much of your energy and time right now. I wish you nothing but the best!
Donate! Those clothes were being useless for a long time anyway. Get the space ! 😊
I love Dani bc she's such an inspiration - there are times when she goes down, but she picks herself back up and keeps going. I really get encouraged when I see her transform her house. My place was REALLY just as 'crazy' and evertime I need a pick me up inspiration, I watch you and Dani.
You just spoke for a lot of us ❤
Donate. Get the energy moving.
I love Dani! I think she should try posting about 5 to 10 items of clothing and see how easy or hard it is for her to sell the clothes. Since her school is closing, it may be more important to her to sell the clothes. Not sure if she gets a break between school years, that might be a good time to process the posting of clothes for sale. Also as she goes through the clothes to sell she may pare them down more deciding some are not worth selling. Then if they don't sell in a certain amount of time donate them or take them to your clothes swap. Dani, good luck with your job hunt and in your decluttering!!!
Thank you! 🥰
I believe in this case donating all those cloths in one fell swoop will feel a lot more amazing than the money you will make from selling them.
Not having a job can be so tough. Know you are not alone ❤ Amazing job decluttering 😊
Im so sorry to hear that Dani lost her job. You can tell she is an amazing teacher. Best of luck on your search!
Team Donate! Maybe if there are a some high value items, she could sell those, but just a few and get them online asap with a selling deadline. Because my experience is that it takes a lot of time and effort and in this case, room in the house.
Free space is a blessing, especially in times when there is a lot going on. And that mental and environmental clarity and space is worth more than anything. And will probably be more conducive in taking steps towards a new future work-wise than anything else 💗
Dani reminds me so much of my longest friend who is also a teacher. I hope she has no issues finding new employment, she's a genuine light and any school would be lucky to have her. I say sell the better quality items while she's in this transitional period, and donate whatever is left when the new job comes through!
Donate. So not worth the time and effort for not a lot of $. The feeling of getting it out of the house in one sweep and the space it creates will be amazing!
🤣😂🤣❤️🐈 OMG. April’s face around Lucy. She’s one mean sassy little kitty.
Orange cat. My personal opinion, based upon experience...orange cats tend toward just a wee bit Crazy.
@@adz5bneweng589🎯
Donate at this stage. At some point you just have to cut your losses and say goodbye (unless you can do a carboot sale (uk word) garage sale style thing and sell all at once).
Once you are settled and all the decluttering is done you can go back to selling as you go. The pile is too much just now!
Dani fans! ❤🎉 Love Dani’s clothes style & still wish we could shop together. Another vote for donate. Yes, the money would be great without income coming in, but the time it would take unless she finds a consignment seller will eat up the time she needs to find a new job.
Donate 💯. If you haven't started the selling process today, the cluttered sell piles will just sit there and begin to attract more clutter. By letting those potential sale piles go, you will free up so much more head space and most likely feel lighter overall.
If you need the money then sell them, but remember this, you will only get a fraction of what you paid, you'll also get people trying to knock you down on the price, OR get them donated and really enjoy your space. Either way Dani you have done amazing and you are only just beginning. When your whole flat is done, your whole life will feel better.
She should donate the clothes ☺️
"Let it go, let it gooooo"😊❤❤As someone who always thinks "I can sell that" the hassle of photographing, listing and shipping is not worth the $$ compared to that instant "ahhhhhhh" feeling of calm that comes from just letting it go. Another GREAT day of decluttering and organizing by April and Dani. ❤🎉
I'm Dani's fan too.
I think she schould donate and just claim back space. That's what I did as well and felt liberating.
Please gift your clothes to others. You have beautiful things that will bring happiness to others.
After the first pass of decluttering clothes, I gave away 23 giant bags and boxes of clothes to my friends, neighbors, and local charities. It was all gone in about 36 hours and it was AWESOME!
I personally would donate those items. The more items that are cleared out the better the energy in the room will feel🎉. Dani is awesome 👍🏻
Beautiful, kind, cooperative and sane! Who wouldn't love Dani?
When I did my big declutter I just got rid of clothes. To me, the potential amount of money I would gain from selling was not worth the effort of photographing, listing them online, packing, posting etc. That said, I imagine that would be different with designer label stuff.
Dani , you have done an awesome job! I am on team donate. Your time and peace of mind are more valuable than the work you would need to do to sell each item. I have donated bags and bags of beautiful clothing and the feeling is very freeing and nothing has been missed. I now use the one in and at least one out method.
DONATE for sure it will fill so good… maybe find a women’s shelter or nursing home…they always need nice things
So much easier to donate than to sell. Peace Over Possessions.
Good job guys it looks great. I am team donate. Once it’s out the door you will be freed. When it’s sitting there it’s just another stressor, a lot of work as well. At some point the money is not worth it. It could take months to sell. Be FREE 😊
Maybe there are a few pieces you can sell and donate the rest?
Especially since you lost your job.
Of all the declutter videos I watch, you are my favorite, because you are so real and legit in you willingness to change. You really seem committed. Kudos to you. Love this about your videos. You may not know it, but you are helping many others come to terms with clutter.🤩🤩🤗 Less is truly more. Dani you are a Super Star. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for the kind words! This project has been absolutely life changing for me, so to hear that it is helping others as well is just the icing on the cake. ❤️
Danni, donate the clothes and get your space back! You will feel so lighter and accomplished ❤
Donate, it's not worth your energy. Just get it out and reclaim the space! Looking good btw.
I love Dani, and I'm so happy she's experiencing so many positive changes in her home life. I wish her all the best on the job hunt.
Dani is so authentic & real I love her ♥️♥️♥️
60% black, 30% blue and 10% beige makes my clothes easy to mix match
Looking good! Donate those extra clothes, Danni! Get them out so your spaces can continue to breathe.💖
It would be sweet if you could sell in a consignment store…clear the clothes out now & get money. I’m currently in the same process & was waiting to have a yard sale, but the longer I have the stuff the more I am tempted to just donate, so that I can move on.
I agree that we need more options than a like button. Keep up the fantastic work April & Dani!
I think Dani should just go ahead and donate them, the time its going to take to list them all is just not worth it, Dani is looking amazing and I think she just needs to get them out of the house, reclaim her space so to speak and thrive x
Dani, you are absolutely lovely. If I had school age kids, I would love if you were their teacher. Here’s something I think about with decisions like this. There are three of me. Current me (who I am wired to be and how I’m most likely to act). Growth me (I could realistically go here with time, energy and/ or resources). Fantasy me (the person I think I SHOULD be based on external messages). If fantasy me is making the decision, it’s 98% gonna fail. If growth me is making the decision, I have good odds of completion-so long as I’m in a life space where I have time, energy, and/or resources to dedicate to the venture. If I don’t have the luxury of those items, I make the plan that gives me the best, swift outcome and acknowledge it could have been different but this is still a valid decision for where I am right now in life. You’re in a stressful place of job search. So give yourself grace in the decision you make. None if them are wrong, but they all have outcomes. So pick the outcome that’s best for your current situation and your mental health. Peace and blessings to you!
I LOVE this approach! This thought process will definitely be helpful with what's to come!
I think Dani should donate the clothes. You accumulate more through the years and it’s better to let the others go. I had three closets worth of clothes. I have decluttered them down to one closet. Most of them haven’t been worn in years. It was time! As you get older you will realize you really don’t need or wear them anymore. You will feel lighter, Dani! Great job, April! Hugs to Izzy!🐈⬛👍🥰💜🌷🌷👍
The magic part - or at least the fun part - I love putting like with like and then a teeny bit of sorting within a category - and it looks so nice! I just imagine Dani will be swanning into her walk-in and selecting her colours and outfit and feeling like a million dollars. It's especially comforting to have some order and calm in your home when scary things like needing to find another job come up unexpectedly. You'll have no problems, you come across as supremely centred and competent and you have amazing fashion sense - I love love love your birthday dress.
As far as the sell pile - if there's anything in there that might get a bit of money that might be the thing to do - I've never really had anything that I could expect to make the money from by selling that would make up for the fuss of having to do the selling.
Dani, you are amazing! Look at what you’ve accomplished! My suggestion is to donate the clothes and focus forward. You’ll be living in the past for years to go, if you try to sell everything. Add in the maintenance and administrative time needed, and packaging, unhappy buyers, etc. Give yourself the gift of NOT selling those things….and help an organization that can do good things from your donation. Rock on, Dani!!!
Dani we do love you!!! 🥰 ❤
Dani you’re such a natural, I love how straightforward you are. So happy that April revisited you. The cat, on the other hand, is disgusted that she’s back 😆😆😆
She loves April a little more each day!
@daniphillips you need to do videos of some type. Your personality is perfect for it!
Definitely donate. You will feel free once it's gone. I love the progress you are making. ❤
Donate the clothes 😻
Donate and free the space
Amazing series! Your clothes are sooooo beautiful, Dani! Make sure to wear everything! Donate those you're not keeping so that you can speed up the decluttering process in the kitchen! Are you going to go through books and papers? I'm a Romance Philology professor and my home office became far more pleasant when I donated half of my books to the Portuguese Studies Center at the university. I'm writing from Brazil.
Dani- Not sure how many got your “They like me, they really like me” comment and where it’s from, but I did and yes, we like you!! Place is looking great. I would lean more towards donating even though you are losing your job. The time and energy to sell them and what I’m guessing will be little return, you could spend looking for another job. When I cleared out closet and stuff from my garage people said I should do a garage sell. A complete sense of dread hit me with all that would entail and I was ready to let it go; I didn’t want to continue to mess with it and let it have a hold on me. The stuff still sitting in the living room is just a reminder that “you didn’t finish” and increases the urge to just put some of it back now that you have some space. Plus when you tackling the kitchen and bathroom, you need a staging space. Best wishes to you and I’ll be praying for a fab job door to open!
Donate Dani! Your space and peace of mind is priceless ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
Realistically selling takes a lot of time, if they’re going to individual buyers. If she can drop them at a place like Buffalo Exchange in US where they take what they want and donate the rest, that might make a little money. We tend to overvalue our castoffs, they may be out of style. So probably donate is the most efficient and gets it out!
I wish Korea had those amazing consignment shops we have back in the US!!
Dani is lovely❤❤❤
I would donate the pile
I like when she wears GREEN
In Germany we need teacher 😉
Hope you find a job asap
And cannot wait for the next sessionsssss
Danke schon! Ich liebe Deutschland! ❤ Maybe I need to move back to Europe! 😊
Oh wie schön 🥰
Watching this while sick and it feels like im sitting with some friends keeping me company while i try to rest and get better. ❤
Get well soon! ❤️
Can’t wait for the two of you to come out of the closet! M waiting for the kitchen declutter. Oh and donate.
It is your choice of course, but during my huge hoard declutter i have donated everything.
I would have loved to have got some much needed money back via a car boot sale. Alas i do not own a car and i am alone. So i have walked all my donation bags out the door to charity 😁 For me personally i just have to have the bags gone, i fill up a huge bag the night before and it's out with me in the morning 😂
Makes complete sense, although it’s hard isn’t it
Hi 😊 I advise donating them and just getting it all out of your house OR take them to a consignment shop right now and see what happens. Thank you for sharing your journey with us😊😊
I always tell myself that simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication 🌹🌹🌹
Definitely donate!! Liberate yourself fully from the clothes that do not serve you. If you donate them to a woman’s shelter or a church this will help you not regret giving them away. However, if you do have to donate to Salvation Army or goodwill, this will help you buy a lot less because you will alwys remember the amount of money you spent on things that you no longer enjoy using. So again, DONATE!! Hehe!!
"You got to get to a place where ist workable. If you are drowning and overwhelmed by everything you should not be making decisions". WORD! Thats why I am still minimizing even if it appears sleek and clean at my house -its still too crowded with unused things which ask for too much...I dont mind about the impression I give, but I want to make my live more comfy and easier for me, better manageable. I feel you!
She made space for her music 💜
I was worried this was the last with Dani! So glad to hear there is more to come!!
Donate. It will help Dani get her house back faster. If you sell online, you will have to take a picture, do description, then keep track of the item to send it out in a timely manner. All the while the item is hanging around taking up space. If you decide to sell only some of them, only keep the big dollar value items. At least some of your space will be reclaimed. Great job so far!
There is a 'best of both worlds' option for all those 'for sale' clothes, currently taking up a lot of space - she could take them to a consignment shop or a clothing reseller that will list on sale sites on her behalf.They will take a commission from the sale, but it offers the huge benefit of an instant declutter!
As someone on a downsizing / simplifying kick, one piece of advice I have for Dani is following one in / one (or more) out and trying to edit down a bit more so everything can breathe a bit and be more easily accessed- when my drawers get stuck when opening/closing or it’s too heavy to shove clothes on the rod to see what I have, I know it’s time for an edit. Great work so far though!
I love your gentle way for declutter!
Maybe try bringing some treats for the kitty? (and give them to her yourself). She may just change her mind about you 😊
Normally I would say donate but if she is going to be out of a job try selling first. This video came up at a good time for me I am trying to take my "summer" clothes out of boxes and hang the problem is that spring and summer are not coming to Scotland just a rainy date a couple of degrees warmer one day and back to cold. making decisions is hard without seasons,
Wish there was a better button than the “like” button.
If she doesn’t ned the money, I Vote donate. The quantity is so great that the time and effort it will take to sell is not worth the sanity. When those bags are gone from her space it will feel so relaxing she won’t even remember what was there.
Donate. I even donated some vintage cartoon glasses from the 70’s to a place that could sell them and make good money that would benefit their organization. I just made sure to point out the valuable stuff to the volunteer. They really appreciated the donation. Made my heart sing. I felt the same way a few years ago when I donated work clothes to the dress for success people. It gave people clothes to interview in when the women weren’t you “standard” size.
LOVE the flamingo shirt! Great colors for you and easy to mix-and-match with many different colors.
Sorry to hear about your job Dani. I think you should donate the items. You will enjoy having the space. Looking forward to you decluttering your kitchen - I also have a large collection of Starbuks mugs 😁
Yea! Dani is back! She is soo relatable and watchable! Thanks for sharing this process with us all❤
Go!!!! Donate everything...like NOW hahaha put everithing in the car and just take it after work😅😅
it feels so good to just donate. less hassle for you, faster to declutter that remaining pile. but if you need more money for a project or to build up your savings, then sell if you can.
LOVE the Dani series! Just went through the comment section and liked every "Donate" recommendation :)
I love the relationship that you two built. You seem long time friends and you are so very supportive of Dani
I've not commented on this series because I was watching the episodes on my tv, and I've not watched them in chronological order, but I've thoroughtly enjoyed the whole preocess. And I wish I could keep my plants as abundant as Dani.
Donate for sure. You’ll feel better getting it out! Let someone else enjoy it!
I’m a Dani super fan!
I love Dani! Please donate….just get on with a “freer” life girl! You are awesome.
Definitely DONATE. 😊
Embrace your open space and peace of mind.✨️
THRIVE!
Donate in one fell swoop! Then you have the double bonus of feeling good and getting that serene space!!
I would pick out the best ¼ of the clothes to sell and take the rest of them to a consignment store!
I am thoroughly enjoying your videos! ❤
Team donate! The freedom and peace you gain by getting rid of the access clothes all at once is priceless. You can’t buy that kind of peace!
I like to make compromises when I declutter. Break it in half, donate 50% and sell 50%. Then keep doing it as time goes on until pile is gone.
I would definitely sell The clothes Being that you're going to be looking for another job it is a form of income
Donate. It's so much easier. I've done that with my books. Donated them to good charities. Feels good. 💐👍💕
Thank you for the video watching you has motivated me , Dani if you can I think you should donate the clothes in the sitting room 😊
If the job is up in the air I would sell, but make a point to sell asap to get the money before you NEED it. Great job.
Yay, more Dani!!! 🎉
Donate the clothes it’s easier and definitely a better feeling 🥰
Hi Ladies, sell what you think is best and donate the rest. It's really good to see you again Dani. Thank you April for the declutter angel that you are.
